"We have hired Greg for both home and business repairs. In our home, Greg and his team painted the entire interior of our home. We appreciate his detailed work, particularly in prepping our plaster walls in order to work out any imperfections. We also hired Greg to repair a ceiling leak, replace a wood deck, install a railing in our basement, and several other smaller projects. All were performed with the same attentiveness to detail. Furthermore, he and his crew cleaned up nicely at the end of each day. Last and not least, Greg is responsive to calls. In fact a couple weeks ago I called him late in the evening for an emergency job in our business, and he texted back first thing in the morning and stopped by to help me before going to his first appointment. Overall, Greg is a trustworthy and skilled craftsman, who we strongly recommend."
"I can only say great things about JA Drywall. We had quite a complicated chimney repair. From the beginning of the process, this company stood out from all the others. Most companies did not return my calls. One did respond but never showed up to start work. The JA Drywall owner came to our initial appointment on time, evaluated the job and gave us a reasonable and fair estimate. The work crew then came on time and worked really hard for two days to repair the chimney. At each stage they kept us informed of progress. They did a wonderful job, kept the site clean and tidied up once job completed. On top of their excellent work, they are a team of friendly and courteous workers, who also took care of a few other things that needed attention. I would recommend this company to all who are looking for quality work by a friendly team at a reasonable price."
"Pete called and ask what the problem is. he knew right away how to make repairs to my gutter, that was hanging off of my roof. He came with the special brackets, repaired and cleaned the gutter then cleaned the remaining gutters. Pete is coming back for repairs that i know i can trust him with."

To reinstall a sliding drawer, align the tracks on both sides of the drawer with the corresponding grooves in the cabinet. Tilt the front of the drawer upward and carefully slide it into place, ensuring that the wheels or rollers on the drawer fit securely into the tracks. Gently push the drawer in until it fully engages with the cabinet. Test the sliding motion to confirm it's properly aligned and functioning. Adjust as needed for a smooth operation.
Minor water damage on wood tables can be reversed fairly easily. You can remove stains and light surface damage with a sandblock, then repaint and re-varnish the wood surface. For swollen and rotten wood, you can cut away the damaged parts and use a wood filler as long as the affected area isn’t too much.
Yes, there are several wood filler products on the market that look like wood. Your best bet is to take a cabinet door to your local hardware store to match the appropriate wood filler to your door. Some brands make filler that is masked to look like wood and can also be sanded, cut, stained, and painted.
If your drawer slides are made of metal or plastic, it’s best to use white lithium grease to lubricate them. The dense formula of that compound creates long-lasting results and should prevent you from having to re-grease the drawer slides frequently. Test the white lithium grease on a small, less-visible area of the slides first to ensure it doesn’t damage the finish before applying to the entire fixture.
